A quick and easy method to prepare a low sodium, single serving of the quintessential Hawai'ian comfort food. Ono! It broke da mouth. Note. An easy measure for the soup base is the use of a salad dressing cruet; dashi to the 'V' line, water to the 'O' line, fill to brim with vegetable broth.
From the May 2005 issue of Parents Magazine.
This makes some YUMMY pork!! I found this recipe a few years ago on line when I was throwing a luau. It went over so well that people still ask "Are you making that awesome pork" every time we have a party!
A low-guilt sweet treat that my hippie mother made all the time. So good, most people don't guess they're not terrible for you.
Manapua are a wonderful snack food popular in Hawaii. I found this recipe in a travel magazine a few years ago. You can substitute Chinese BBQ pork (char siu) for the sausage if you'd like.
This looks really cool, and a better alternative to HFCS-laden tomato ketchups on the market these days! It's a bit labor intensive though. From my Pacific Islands e-cookbook. I think Splenda or Sun Crystals would work in place of the sugar and that cutting it should be fine if you're watching sugar intake-- but I'm posting it as written.
From the southern Pacific island of Guam where we lived for 4 years! These were a favorite at our church potluck suppers and picnics with barbequed chicken and ribs! Very refreshing in hot and humid weather! (The name "Chamorro" comes from the native people of Guam...very warm, and friendly people...)
This is a recipe that has been a family favorite for decades. My aunt gave it to my mom when she asked for it, I don't know where my aunt got this recipe. We would serve this on top of some white rice.
A refreshing, tropical flavored iced tea.

This is an adopted recipe. (Can be used for OAMC see notes at the end of recipe)
Opakapaka is the Hawaiian word for red snapper. This is a very popular fish in Hawaii, and having tried it, I can see why. The preparation isn't really Hawaiian, though. I usually prefer my seafood without breading, but this pecan crust is fantastic.
The delicious combination of flavors & the grilled pineapple really makes this come together. I have posted the original recipe, which is meatless, but have added chicken with great results (just be sure to marinade separately from veggies and discard chicken marinade). This is great for summer BBQs and camping! Prep time includes bare-minimum marinating time.
